http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b5dd39b3127cce90ec1a1b6b8c00000016108CbOWjJoyau

Bonus: Name three other attractions you'll see on this ride as well. :teeth:

[Mykelogan]

Hmmm.... I want to say Tomorrowland Transit Authority... if not, then Spaceship Earth?

Mike :scratchin

[vettechick99]

Hmmm.... I want to say Tomorrowland Transit Authority... if not, then Spaceship Earth?

Mike :scratchin

TTA (or Wedway as I prefer to call it) is right! :flower: Now do you know the answer to bonus question?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Space Mountain, Stitches Great (???) Escape, and Buzz Lightyear....


Welcome to the game!!!!


:flower: :flower:

[vettechick99]

Space Mountain, Stitches Great (???) Escape, and Buzz Lightyear....


Welcome to the game!!!!


:flower: :flower:

YUP! Thanks for the welcome. :flower:

Mykelogan, your turn since you got the original question...

[Mykelogan]

TTA (or Wedway as I prefer to call it) is right! :flower: Now do you know the answer to bonus question?

Hmm, three attractions?

* Space Mountain
* Buzz Lightyear's Spin
* That futuristic hair salon window? hehe

Those are my best guesses!

Now it is my turn...
What are two things banned at Animal Kingdom that you can get pretty easily at the other parks?

May be old hat to others but i just learned this and thought it was cool! :cool1:

Mike

[vettechick99]

What are two things banned at Animal Kingdom that you can get pretty easily at the other parks?


Mike

OK, I know one for sure is drinking straws. I want to say gum is the other, but I don't know for sure if any park sells gum. So straws & gum?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Isn't it straws and "lids" (for the cups)????


Ya'll have a magical day!!!


:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[Mykelogan]

Straws is correct... Still one missing... :cool2:

[marypops!]

according to my WDW trivia book, they are:
drinking straws, cup lids and balloons which are not allowed in Animal Kingdom

[vettechick99]

Straws is correct... Still one missing... :cool2:

Is it some sort of noise-making toy? Or one with lights?

[Mykelogan]

Balloons was the one I was waiting for! Congrats Marypops!
AAC awarded to you! (Ie. Your turn!) :earsboy:

Mike

[marypops!]

ok
i've opened my book on a random page and chose a random question so here it is:
The Osborne Family Spectacle of Lights moved to the studios from what city?
easy for guys with the WDW trivia book but hArd for people without them
also this was random so don't think i just chose this question because it looks hard

[MonorailDude]

Dear any new members, remember to wait until the answer has been confirmed right by the asker of the question. After they confirm it you will get the AAQ (Ask A Question) Card. Use the card to ask the question. Thank you.

[MonorailDude]

New York? ;)

[vettechick99]

Oklahoma City?

[marypops!]

nope and nope

:banana:

[vettechick99]

Topeka, KS?

[JamesD]

Little Rock, Arkansas

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I'll second James...I think he is correct with Little Rock, Arkansas!!!


:jumping1:

[marypops!]

right with Litte Rock
james gets a nice geography question with a bit of history and science on top
:)

[efinn88858]

I found James' AAC card...(maybe he threw it away?)
just kidding....

Here's an easy one for everybody:

What does EPCOT stand for?

[plutospup]

Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow!

[efinn88858]

Move to the front of the class, plutopup! :teacher:

Tag! You're it!

[plutospup]

A device which looks like a blimp attached to a vacuum with an "idea bag" used to collect strange and interesting things was found (prior to 10/10/98) at which attraction?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

that would be in Imagination with Figment!!!!


:firefight :crazy2: :flower3: :scratchin

[plutospup]

The royal purple pigment creature says...Correct! You're up!

[JamesD]

I have to interject here, Epcot does not stand for anything now, according to the official party line. It is just the name of WDW's second gate.
The name of the last attraction was Journey Into Imagination.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Here's one....


Name the countries in the World Showcase that include a movie of some kind....


:jumping1:

[Mykelogan]

Here's one....


Name the countries in the World Showcase that include a movie of some kind....


:jumping1:

Mexico
Norway
China
US
Morocco
France
Canada

I think!
Mike

[gometros]

Mexico
Morocco

I think!
Mike

Morocco has a movie?

[Mykelogan]

Morocco has a movie?

Well the question said movie of some kind, and Morocco has a slide show about life there in the "tourist office"... so I included it to be thorough! hehe

Mike :banana:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

All are right EXCEPT Morocco!!!! Slide shows do NOT count as a movie!!!


Lots of pretty pictures AAQ to you! Mykelogan


:flower: :cool1: :flower:

[Mykelogan]

Yay! Thank you Wdwtheplacetobe!

Here's my Q... probably easy but hey...

Which park attraction features the largest seamless projection screen in the world?

Bonus points if you include the size!

Mike :earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

How about Mickey's Philharmajic??? (one of my favorites)



150 foot wide canvas!!!


:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

[Mykelogan]

How about Mickey's Philharmajic??? (one of my favorites)



150 foot wide canvas!!!


:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:


Correct on both accounts!
World's Largest AAQ headed to you! :banana: :banana: :banana:

Mike :3dglasses

[plutospup]

Time to get this thread off pg 7!
Where could you have found "Colander Combo and the Fiesta Fruit"? :banana:

[debbiedoo]

Food Rocks??

[plutospup]

Close...but no eggs and ham for you!

[vettechick99]

Wow, not Food Rocks? That would have been my guess!

Umm, is it in Innoventions??

[pixiedust23]

I don't think this is correct but Kitchen Caboret?

[gometros]

I don't think this is correct but Kitchen Caboret?

I second my favorite show that's no longer there - Kitchen Kabaret.

[plutospup]

Well done Pixiedust23, and gometros! You're correct. The forerunner to Food Rocks, featuring Mr. Eggz, and Mr. Ham was...Kitchen Cabaret!

[gometros]

Well done Pixiedust23, and gometros! You're correct. The forerunner to Food Rocks, featuring Mr. Eggz, and Mr. Ham was...Kitchen Cabaret!

Not to nitpick, but that's Kabaret with a k

We haven't a photo clue in a while, so I'm bringing back one I used a long time ago.

Where in the world would you find this?

http://www.canettifamily.com/images/ParksGame5.jpg

[Mykelogan]

I have no guess where that pick is but I can't wait to see the answer!!!
Such a cute topiary!

Mike :earsboy:

[MonorailDude]

Somewhere in Epcot? ;) ;) ;)

[Gymbomom]

I am thinking MGM,
maybe on the way to Fantasmic??

[plutospup]

Not to nitpick, but that's Kabaret with a k
]

No problem- nitpick away! :teeth: (especially since you're right!)

As for the photo clue...How about MGM between Voyage of the Little Mermaid and the Chinese Theatre?

[peter pan217]

in front of the sorcier's hat

[Carol Ann]

Hmmm...looks a little like the planet hollywood tower in the background...so I am going to have to guess Downtown Disney, West Side...although I've never seen that topiary.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Since this is the PARKS game, we know it can't be at DTD....

How about the topiaries right in front of the Brown Derby in MGM....
the dancing brooms w/buckets are there, too.

:confused3 :confused3 :confused3

[subhuman31]

That is located right next to the MGM Studios walk-through that leads to Disney Animation

[debbiedoo]

Right next to the Brown and derby and the bigh studios sign at MGM. Has the dancing brooms also.

[gometros]

Since this is the PARKS game, we know it can't be at DTD....

How about the topiaries right in front of the Brown Derby in MGM....
the dancing brooms w/buckets are there, too.

:confused3 :confused3 :confused3

You got it. It's to the left of the Brown Derby. A hat-sized AAQ for getting that one.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Thanks, Sandy...that was a good one...



Where is the town of Tumbleweed located? Name 5 animals that hang out around there...



:wave: :wave: :wave:

[plutospup]

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad! Goat, donkey, chicken, possum, bat

[marypops!]

what he said i also remember (not sure if it's true) that a while back an aligator came onto the tracks

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Plutospup gets the Choo-choo AAQ....one of my favorites---especially at night!!!!

:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

[plutospup]

Thanx wdwtheplacetobe! DD & I love Big Thunder at night, too. Speaking of being in the dark...

The Radio Corportation of America was the initial sponsor of which attraction?

[debbiedoo]

space mountain??

[plutospup]

Debbiedoo, blast off with a new question! (BTW, DD7 loves your Tink!!!!)

[boardwalkbusker]

Could it be Carousel of Progress?

[Granny]

I've got this old AAQ card that I thought I'd dust off!

Why is the page number this question is posted on considered to be a Magical Number?

:)

[vettechick99]

Is 1971 when MK opened?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Welcome Home, Granny!


Because WDW opened in 1971!!!!

71 is SPECIAL!

:Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

[Granny]

vettechick99....you were the first one in to get that question right! Yes, the numbers 71 and 1971 are considered very special here on the Parks Game thread. They have been recognized as "magical numbers" ever since this thread started 3 1/2 years ago!!

A Magical Number AAQ card to vettechick99!

And wdwtheplacetobe....thanks so much for the kind welcoming words! I'm afraid that my work has made my ability to play here pretty much impossible the past several months. But always nice to see old friends! :)

[vettechick99]

A Magical Number AAQ card to vettechick99!



Woohoo! That was a total guess...I'm glad I got it. And props to you for being so creative with your question!!

OK, What is located on the carpet in the Hall of Presidents and why is it so special? You must get both answers right to win AAQ card.

[Granny]

I'll take a pure guess and say that the official Seal of the President of the United States is on the carpet in HOP? And it's special because Disney is the only organization allowed to use the official seal other than the President's office itself? :confused3

[vettechick99]

I'll take a pure guess and say that the official Seal of the President of the United States is on the carpet in HOP? And it's special because Disney is the only organization allowed to use the official seal other than the President's office itself? :confused3

Great guess...and a right one!! :banana: :banana:

The Official AAQ Seal (Card) goes to the Granny who's a guy!

[Granny]

Thanks! I got lucky with that guess!

What is the number of the Fire Engine company on Main Street USA?

:)

[gometros]

Is 1971 when MK opened?

Welcome to page 71 everybody!!

:banana: :cool1: :banana: :cool1: :banana: :cool1: :banana: :cool1: :banana:

Hi Granny :wave:

[crystalgirl58]

Is it Engine Co. 71?

[gometros]

Thanks! I got lucky with that guess!

What is the number of the Fire Engine company on Main Street USA?

:)

Based on our celebatory page number, I'll guess 71?

[Granny]

Sandy....since you inadvertently mentioned the correct answer in your post, you were the first to include the number 71 in your answer! Yes, it is indeed Engine Company #71! :earsboy: And thanks for the nice welcome...great to see some "long timers" still hanging around as well as lots of new players. :)

Crystalgirl...you were actually the first one to answer the question correctly.

So "71, Of Course" AAQ cards to Sandy and Crystal! :banana:

[SteamboatMickey]

A MUCH needed BUMP here!

[tink85]

Hey all - I'm pretty sure I have an old AAQ card around here someplace so here's a question to move us along:

Where in the World can you find Tinkerbell's prison?

[BelleChick]

Is it in Tinkerbell's treasures...I heard some where that you can look through a key hole on a dresser drawer or a suitcase or something and see her in it...?

[tink85]

Not exactly, there's a specific place where Tink's prison is labeled

[MonorailDude]

Cinderella's Castle? Long shot.

I know I have seen it before. But I can't think of it!!!

[tink85]

nope, ok, hint number one, it's in Disney-MGM somewhere...

[amandadaddy]

Tink's prison?.......

Thanks to the hint, I'm going to guess that it's in that first store to the left as you enter the park......if that's no good, I'll say that it's part of the preshow area displays at One Man's Dream.

Good morning all!

:earsboy:

[tink85]

ok, it's not in a store but in an attraction, not One Man's Dream though I'm afraid...keep going!

[vettechick99]

in Fantasmic?

[tink85]

nope, ok, hmmm.....it's in a pre-show area

[Cmandrews13]

I am a new player to this game and gonna guess that it is in the pre show are to the great movie ride.....

[wdwtheplacetobe]

How about in Peter Pan's Flight????


:wizard: :wizard: :wizard:

[Pinnochio]

the magic of disney animation?

[amandadaddy]

Details, details, details......the only prison that Tink was in was a lantern, and you can find one in the preshow of ToT.....is that what you were looking for?


:earsboy:

[tink85]

no one's got it yet - ok, so let's recap: It's in Disney-MGM studios, in a pre-show area of an attraction and new clue, it's a show, not a ride

[amandadaddy]

Is there a lantern in the preshow area of VOTLM? I'll bet there is, and that's a show, not a ride!

:earsboy:

[tink85]

Tinkerbell's Prison (http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/singintherain13/detail?.dir=6e81&.dnm=9b66.jpg&.src=ph)

YAY! A pixie-dusted AAQ card for amandadaddy!!! :cheer2:

Tinkerbell's prison is indeed in the pre-show area of the Voyage of the Little Mermaid!

[amandadaddy]

Hey, I got one! It's been a while so I can be a little excited. Sorry it took soo long to get back to the boards, but work has to come first. In honor of our WDW trip over the Holidays I'll ask a simple one:

Name the Different Christmas Storytellers featured at the WS and their country of origin.

Good morning (afternoon) and good luck to all!

:earsboy:

[SG1Fan]

Mexico......Three Kings (Los Tres Reyes Magos)
Norway.....Julenissen
China.......Monkey King
Germany...St. Nicholas
Italy........La Befana
Japan......Daruma seller
Morocco..Taarji
France....Pere Noel
United Kingdom....Father Christmas
Canada..... Papa Noel

[amandadaddy]

SG1 nails it! A festive AAQ card to you and a very good morning to all!

:earsboy:

[MonorailDude]

Bumping. No time for a new question now......

[MonorailDude]

FINE! I'll post a qestion. Anything to make this thread live! So here's an easy one to get us started off again.

What happens in WDW this May?

[Mykelogan]

Umm.... er... I dunno.... wait!!!

I will be going back for my second trip this year!!!! :banana:

Is that right? DId I win???
I have a second guess I will submit if you by some chance were not referring to my vacation. ;)

Mike :3dglasses

[marypops!]

the 50th celebration of disneyland

[Mykelogan]

That was my second guess!!!!
;)

Mike

[MonorailDude]

That's Disneyland. I said WDW.

[ksdave]

The International Flower and Garden Festival?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

"Happiest Celebration on Earth" starts May 5 to mark Disneyland's 50th

Nice to see you, Dave! I was wondering where everybody was!

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[Gymbomom]

Star Wars Weekends??

[Cmandrews13]

Perhaps we would all be better off if the question only had 1 answer...

But here are some possiblilties....

Soarin opens....
The stunt Spectacular opens....
Crushin Gusher opens...

:cheer2:

[MonorailDude]

the 50th celebration of disneyland
After reviewing my gacts, I have learned that you are right. Due to the anniversary, my main reason for what is happening in WDW will occur. Now you all just have to find out the results, Cmandrews13 got a few of them.

1. Disneyland Anniversary.
2. NEW Soaring ride.
3. MGM's stunt spectacular show.

Just 3 more. :bounce:

What are the results of Disneylands 50th anniversary in WDW?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

let's see...

Cinderellabration!

and

IASW has been redone to be brighter and a more spectacular classic!

:banana: :banana: :banana:

5 more days until my visit "Home"!!!!

[Mykelogan]

Enormous crowds?? :earseek:

Mike

[MonorailDude]

Cinderellabration is another.

1. Disneyland Anniversary.
2. NEW Soaring ride.
3. MGM's stunt spectacular show.
4. Cinderellabration.

Only two more. Think about changes of environment, and building of rides......

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Lucky the Dinosaur---world's first walking animatronic will be in AK

And

Preview of Hong Kong Disney will be in Epcot

per the official WDW site....


:confused3 :confused3 :confused3

[MonorailDude]

Not exactly what I am looking for.........

[Mykelogan]

Summer begins and there will be an exhibition about the new Everest ride at AK?

Mike :earseek:

[MonorailDude]

That's another! Close enough. This question is dragging. There is also the new castle changes for this anniversary. Maybe I can find pictures sometime.

1. Disneyland Anniversary.
2. NEW Soaring ride.
3. MGM's stunt spectacular show.
4. Cinderellabration.
5. Expedition Everest.
6. New castle.

[vettechick99]

So who's asking the next question??

BUMP!

[PratersloveDW]

So who's asking the next question??

BUMP!


Why don't you?!?! :teeth:

[vettechick99]

Why don't you?!?! :teeth:

Oh my, ok. I'm not good at trivia but here it goes!

When The Magic Kingdom opened on October 1, 1971 it featured how many attractions?

[AKQJ10]

The MK featured 23 attractions on opening day...

[vettechick99]

The MK featured 23 attractions on opening day...

You got it! AAQ to you, AKQJ10!

[AKQJ10]

Now...

What was the first attraction to open in the Magic Kingdom AFTER October 1, 1971? (name the attraction and when it opened for a "gold star") :)

[plutospup]

Hmmm...The Mickey Mouse Review?

[Mister Disney]

Now...

What was the first attraction to open in the Magic Kingdom AFTER October 1, 1971? (name the attraction and when it opened for a "gold star") :)
Circle-Vision, November 1971

[wdwtheplacetobe]

while we wait for Ace's affirmation..........Here's a toughy to think about....


In CoP, the 1920's---what is the make of the stove and the ad on the fan held by the main character???


:confused3 :cool1: :confused3

[AKQJ10]

Sorry, not the Revue or CoP

[tink85]

I think the ad on the fan has something to do with Niagara Falls and is the oven General Electric?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

You're half-right, Tink!!! The fan ad is Niagra Falls.....

Guess again for the stove---I was surprised that it was not GE!

Ace--How about "America the Beautiful" --opening Nov 1971???

:cheer2: :umbrella: :cheer2:

[AKQJ10]

Nope... not America the Beautiful either :(

[tink85]

Hmmm, it's not general electric? that is surprising...I need the photos my dad's taken of this ride over the years I feel but let's think...I'm seeing an H so like Hoover or Hooiser or something like that? Wait, Hoover is the vacuum cleaner company...ugh :rolleyes: Am I on the right track or any track at all...it's finals week, pardon my rambling :teeth:

[Mister Disney]

I think it is a chambers stove, no?

[subhuman31]

I think the stove is a Hotpoint.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

the rest of the AAQ goes to Subhuman!!!!!
the stove is a Hotpoint!!!

:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Ace still has his question unanswered....


How about.....Pirates of the Caribbean????


have a magical day!

:wizard: pirate: :wizard:

[plutospup]

If You Had Wings, sponsored by Eastern Airlines

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Guessing..........Grand Prix Raceway or Skyway???????


:confused3 :Pinkbounc :confused3

[JamesD]

Lou's in Florida, so I wouldn't wait to ask the next question, but I think the answer is Oct. 2, 1971: The Admiral Joe Fowler Riverboat begins operation in Frontierland.

[Granny]

Ace...how about the Swan Boats? Though I think James' answer is correct.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

:thewave:

A NEW question---guesses are ok, since this is a NEW experience....

What are the 3 smells associated with Soarin' in The Land????

:confused3 :earsboy: :earsgirl: :confused3

[AKQJ10]

Hey I'm sorry about that!! I was away and been super-busy since I returned!

James is right - the Liberty Square opened on on Oct. 2, 1971.

A belated "you're up!" to you!

[ryley26]

How about the ocean pine trees and flowers

[peter pan217]

and some kind of fruit

[MickeyBabe]

Orange, Pine, Ocean Breeze

:wave2:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

MickeyBabe got 'em ALL....

A nosey AAQ to you!

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:


***Almost AAQ's for ryley and peterpan!!!! If ya'll have a question--go for it!

[Higgs22]

I've got nothing to ask...but it's been so long since I've been here--thought I'd drop by and say hi.... :cool1:

To keep on topic...here's a fun fact....the hitchhiking ghosts at the HM are named Gus, Phinnias and Ezra....

[ksdave]

Higgs;
You and I need to stop working so hard and get back to playing The Game every once in a while.

Just a quick thing for all of you: My daughter, in true family spirit, has been hired to be a nanny for a three-year-old by one of our neighbors.....on their WDW trip this summer! Talk about a lucky girl. All she needs to pay for is her dinner each night and her entrance ticket into the one day they are doing at Sea World. They are paying for everything else.
Me, I get to work while she plays :sad2: .

Oh, and to keep on track, I'll guess Horizons :p .

[Higgs22]

LOL...good point Dave! :smooth:

BTW...Horizons was not the right answer this time...I took another look at the question and the answer was clearly the Wonders of Life! :earboy2:

[MickeyBabe]

Thanks wdwtptb :wave:

As seen in writing, who welcomes you to Tomorrowland?


Higgs!!! Dave!!! :grouphug: Great to see you here. It has been way too long.

[Higgs22]

Thanks Mbabe :cool1:
Anyway...isn't it something like the Interplanetary Chamber of Commerce??

[MickeyBabe]

You are correct Higgs! ::yes::

One Planetary AAQ card to Higgs.

:wave2:

[DisneyJen]

Just stopping by the old chalk circle ... glad to see that the games is still on :cool1:

And my answer is ... Horizons :rotfl:

[ksdave]

Boy.....it's really quiet in here. Guess the old chalk circle has just about run its course. Kinda sad. :guilty: But, I guess we've all gone on to other things. Me, I'm in the process of building a new house and trying to sell the existing one. Hope you are all doing well and drinking the good waters of WDW ;) .

As for a question, here's a softball:

What is higher, the castle or Tower of Terror?

[vettechick99]

Total guess here... the castle?

[Loves Disney]

Hi, I am new to this game, but I was reading and my guess is going to be Tower of Terror, who is standing tall at 199 feet high!

(http://www.TickerFactory.com/)

[ksdave]

Loves Disney, you are absolutely right. Now, for part 2 of the question:

Why did they make TOT only 199 feet tall?

[LongIslandCouple]

So that it would fall under FAA guidelines.

[poohpcgirl]

Yep, one more foot would mean they'd have to put one of those read aircraft warning lights on the top. That would have been tacky tacky... LOL

How many people can ride SOARIN' on each trip?

[Loves Disney]

Loves Disney, you are absolutely right. Now, for part 2 of the question:

Why did they make TOT only 199 feet tall?

I have NOT read ahead with fears people have already responded to that question because I definetly know that one. If they had put another foot on the TOT, they would need those lights for airplanes.

[Loves Disney]

Oh, I guess the answer WAS already written. Well, anyway, I suppose my answer was correct. Also, I am deeply sorry if I sound like a complete fool. I just really get into these things. I LOVE disney trivia!!!!!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Loves Disney ---Welcome to the Game! NBD about answering again...sometimes we all think of the right answer at the same time!!! :goodvibes :goodvibes :goodvibes

As for Soarin'----It's either 30 or 36....I remember 2 sides, 3 rows each, but 5 or 6 per row....not sure!

Glad to see the game back on!

:wave: :mickeybar :wave:

[ksdave]

I'll guess 36 on Soarin'.

[Loves Disney]

No one has asked a question for a long while so I will try to continue the game.

What is Walt Disney's Favorite song?

[plutospup]

Hmmmmmmm.... how about...Zip-a-dee-do-da!

[Loves Disney]

Nope!!!!!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

:cool1: "When you wish upon a star....." :cool1:

:cool1: :flower: :cool1:

Happy 4th!!!!

:thewave:

[poohpcgirl]

I am so sorry. I posted a question and forgot to check back...
87 Guests can ride per each ride cycle for Soarin'.

[Loves Disney]

Nope!!!


Hint: You can hear it in "Mary Poppins"

[DISUNC]

Feed the Birds!

[Mykelogan]

Hmmm...

"Feed the birds (toppins a bag)"

or "Jolly Holiday" ?

Mike :flower:

[Loves Disney]

DISUNC, You got it first. Feed the Birds IS Walt Disney's Favorite song. I thought it was quite interesting how of all the common songs you hear such as When you wish uopn a star Walt's fav. was Feed the Birds. I acually think it is a lovely song myself and enjoy playing on the piano. Who has another question? I want to answer some!

[DISUNC]

Thanks..it's one of my favorite songs too!

What is the most recent ride that opened in Adventureland????

[Loves Disney]

Ohhhh, tough one considering I don't spend most of my time there and haven't been in a while, but I will guess Aladdin's Carpet ride??????? That was the new one when I went last!!!

[DISUNC]

Loves Disney....YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! you got it right!

[Loves Disney]

Wee, I'm so happy!! Here, I have another one. It may be very easy though.

How many stories do you drop in Splash Mountain?

[DISUNC]

Hmmm...

"Feed the birds (toppins a bag)"

or "Jolly Holiday" ?

Mike :flower:

Mike, just a friendly FYI...it's "Tuppence a Bag"....it's the UK version of saying "pennies a bag"! :earsboy:

[DISUNC]

not sure of how many stories...but its 52 feet! thats actually a little over 4 stories! (12feet to a story)

[Loves Disney]

Yep, you are correct again! Do you have another question? or does anybody else?

[DISUNC]

I'll go......(if no one minds) :cool1:

Over at MGM in the Star tours ride, what is the name of the robot "pilot in training" who "guides" you through space?????

[Loves Disney]

I will guess, Captin Rex or "RX-24."

[DISUNC]

rx-24 is correct! Johnny...tell her what she won!!!!!!!

[Loves Disney]

Oh, oh, I have one!!

How tall is Summit Plummit?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Summit Plummet is a 350 ft slide.

FYI--Loves Disney---Please put questions in BOLD so it's easier to follow....according to the Emperor of this game. :wave:


Did ya'll have a HAPPY 4th????

:jumping2: :thewave: :jumping2:

[Loves Disney]

No, that is not the answer. And I am also VERY sorry that my questions were not in bold! :blush:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

"summit plummet begins 120 ft in the air on a platform built 30 ft above the top of Mt. Gushmore" according to my source....Is that what you're seeking for an answer???

NBD about the questions in bold. Keep playin' !!!

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[Loves Disney]

Yes, that is what I was seeking for an answer plus some. So, the ride in total is 350 feet? I'm am soo confused now!!! I have another question.

Rock 'n" Roller coaster brings you from 0-60mph at the start in what amount of time?

[ksdave]

I'll guess 4 seconds.

[SG1Fan]

from memory I keep thinking 2.8 seconds for some reason

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I'll be happy to second SG1---it goes in 2.8 seconds!


:moped: :moped: :moped:

[plutospup]

Faster than the time it takes for me to scream!!!!!!!!!

[Loves Disney]

First of all, I am sorry I didn't respond sooner, but guess where I was? WDW!!!!!!! Anyway, the answer IS 2.8 seconds. Isn't that fast!!!???

[wdwtheplacetobe]

We haven't had a question in ever so....so here goes....


What are kringles and where can you find them????


:boat: :boat: :boat:

[plutospup]

Pastry found in Norwegian bakery/EPCOT?

[amandadaddy]

I'll second Plutospup, definately a pastry!

:earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

yum-yum!

You're up, plutospup!

make a stop at Norway on your next adventure!

You, too amandadaddy!


:cool1: :flower: :cool1:

[plutospup]

...I'd like a rice cream, danish, oh and how about one of those nice pastries, too! Just love Norway!

In the center of this square is a statue of St. George and the dragon, which legend says he slayed on a pilgrimage to the Middle East. Where is this found?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Germany, of course!


:cool1: :wave: :cool1:


Biergarten and all!!!

[plutospup]

I raise my stein to you wdwtheplacetobe! You're up!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Thanks, plutospup!

Here's a hard one to ponder while I go to work....

What are the famous tunnels called and what two Behind-the-Scenes Tours can you take to see them???


:confused3 :confused3 :confused3

:jumping1: :jumping1: :jumping1:

[Higgs22]

Well I know they are called the Utilidors

As for the tours...is it Backstage Magic and Keys to the Kingdom?

P.S.--it's good to be back :earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Go, Higgs, Go!!!!


You are Right for both questions.....so Magic AAQ's (2) for you!


Ask some fun ones!

:cool1: :bounce: :cool1:

[MonorailDude]

Yes please!!

[Loves Disney]

I have one!

Why, on the Haunted Mansion, is there no Knight chess piece eventhough the others are there?

[vettechick99]

This is a guess....cuz it's always "night" at the HM?

[plutospup]

How about..."Nothing will protect you at the Haunted Mansion"!

[Loves Disney]

This is a guess....cuz it's always "night" at the HM?

While the guess about "nothing will protect you in the Haunted Mansion" is probably a better answer than even the true answer, the true answer is guessed by the person I just quoted. The man who helped designed the Haunted Mansion was a man who left his signature eveywhere; His signature being chess pieces. However, after knowing what the Haunted Mansion was all about, the man decided to leave a certain piece off the roof. That being the Knight. This was because it is always "night" at the Haunted Mansion.

Thanks plutospup! But I give up my turn to ask to anyone who'd like to step in. Who's got a question?? :teacher:

[TheBellhop]

BUMP!!!

What has happened to this thread?!

[AKQJ10]

I'll throw an easy one out there to get this started up again, OK?

What is the name of the Tiki god that Iago upsets in The Enchanted Tiki Room: Under New Management?

[WedwayRocks]

I think it is Uhoa.

[AKQJ10]

You got it, WedWay (love your name BTW... it will always be the WedWay to me!)

You're up!!!

[ksdave]

Here's a question:

What treasured 4th anniversary for the DIS boards will happen on 9/17? And where will you all be on that date?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Hi Dave!

It's our Parks Game anniversary of course.... :cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

Let's see---that's a Saturday---just finishing a vacation, but UNfortunately Not with the Mouse!

Have a Magical Day!

[ksdave]

Yes, that is the date of the anniversary of our Parks Game thread. Hopefully, we can fill the virtual Chalk Circle that day with our players gone by and remember when we used to fill 20-25 pages a day with questions and answers (as well as the occassional mention of the magic waters :teeth: ).

Here's another question to keep things moving (albeit a little slowly):

Which company sponsored Horizons when it first opened?

[plutospup]

General Electric!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

GE!!! Me, too!

Did ya'll know there is a picture walk thru of Horizons on the web?

www.pansophist.com ....It's really cool!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

You are right on every one, MickeyBabe!

You "gave" me a softball so I could start playing this game! Thanks Much!

:Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc

[MickeyBabe]

You are quite welcome and I see you are returning the favor to get me back in the game. ;)

What animal make up the orchestra in MuppetVision 3D?

:wave2:

[plutospup]

Penguins...complete with tuxedos!

[MickeyBabe]

Correct!

One formal ewar AAQ card to plutospup! :)

You're up!

[plutospup]

A 1984 MK parade featured a float with ducks wearing party hats. What was the occasion?

[ksdave]

Was it Donald's 50th Birthday?

[plutospup]

Was it Donald's 50th Birthday?

It was a "Quacking Good Time"! It's 21 yrs later, and I still remember Donald's Happy Birthday song.

Well done ksdave - you're up!

[ksdave]

OK, here's one from the "old days".

When EPCOT first opened, what was the name of the area you entered after riding Spaceship Earth?

[plutospup]

Earth Station! (Later to become Global Neighborhood)

[ksdave]

plutospup, you are absolutely correct. I still remember using the touch screens to make reservations for dinner, and thinking how amazing that was for the time!
You're up next.

[plutospup]

Re:Earth Station - The touch screens were great!

What Tomorrowland attraction was originally sponsored by McDonnell-Douglas?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Just a guess....was it "If you had Wings" ?

:cool1: :Pinkbounc :cool1:

[plutospup]

Good guess, but...no. Keep trying! :banana:

[ksdave]

Was it "Trip to the Moon"? or whatever it was called? I worked for Mac Doug, so I should remember this one.

[plutospup]

Was it "Trip to the Moon"? or whatever it was called? .

Close! Not Mission to the Moon, but...the next generation!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Mission to Mars?????

:moped: :moped: :moped:

[plutospup]

Correct!
Oddly enought Mission to the Moon didn't have a sponsor. However, when it changed to Mission to Mars McDonnell-Douglas stepped in.

wdwtheplacetobe...A red planet AAQ card to you!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

thanks much!!!


Here's a relatively easy one....

What is the theme song of our favorite purple dragon?

:flower: :flower: :flower:

[LiteBrite]

One Little Spark

[wdwtheplacetobe]

An imaginative AAQ for you, LiteBrite!!!!

POR is our favorite! Have a blast!


:paw: :paw: :paw:

[LiteBrite]

Thanks!

Ok, here's one (sorry if it's been asked before - I'm brand spankin new to this game) -

What is the first Hidden Mickey you can see in the gangster section of the Great Movie Ride?

[plutospup]

Is it the three lights/streetlights?

[LiteBrite]

Ooh, nice try Pluto's Pup, but that's not it.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

According to the Web (I have not personally seen it, but will be looking next time)---there is a Hidden Mickey in the Warehouse Window in Gangster Alley---put there by Carlos Ahrens.

Not sure if this is the one you want.

:confused3 :confused3 :confused3

Be sure to take a costume to the Halloween party!

[ClarabelleCowFan]

You can see Mickey's feet on a poster that is underneath another poster. :earboy2:

[LiteBrite]

Ding Ding Ding!!! We have a winner:cool1:

Here's a big poster sized AAQ for you, ClarabelleCowFan.

[ksdave]

Seems like we need a question again to keep the thread alive. Since I've been on here almost 4 years, I think I have a few unused AAQ's around somewhere:

In what WDW attraction can you hear the phrase.."Disappear, Disappear!"

[AKQJ10]

Gotta jump in here on this one and say the Maelstrom from Norway! :)

[plutospup]

Wow Lou, your fast!

Just curious - On Maelstrom, Is it when the "eye" pops up...and says "Disappear, Disappear"!

[ksdave]

AKQJ10;
You win the AAQ. You're next up for a question.

plutospup;
All I remember is that it was in the part where you go backwards. That was the first ride I was ever on that did that and it felt so weird.

(BTW, only one week until the fourth anniversary of The Parks Game Thread. Hope you can all join us for the Whipparita party :banana: ).

[AKQJ10]

Hmmm... OK...

OK... speaking of backwards:

Name all of the attractions in WDW in which your vehicle travels backwards at some point!

:)

[ksdave]

Well, I thought of two so far: Maelstrom and Haunted Mansion.
I guess you could also count Universe of Energy, since the theater cars pivot, some going backwards and others forward.
This question is tougher than it looks. :earseek:

[MickeyBabe]

Tower of Terror? :wave2:

[debbiedoo]

Tower of Terror
Spaceship Earth
Malestrom
Haunted Mansion

[plutospup]

Primevil Whirl, Dinosaur, Kali River Rapids
